Looks like Tord is coming backThoughts?
>>152986762I don't know Edd's been dead for like 15 years, don't really have any thoughts it was mainly fujos who cared about and harassed Tord.
15 minutes of Tord and Tom fucking
>>152986762Tom is raging and stress eating over this. How dare Tord do this to Tom? Doesn't he know Tom will eat himself to death?
>>152986762Is it his actual VA or are they just using his caricature again like last time?The impact won't feel the same anyway since Edd's dead and Tom was booted leaving just Matt
>>152986762I'm out of the loop, I thought Tord was off limits?
>>152989568His return is not an actual return; it appears to be a prequel spin-off that will explain what Tord did during all those years he was gone.
>>152988079IRL Tord is a fucking Ghost dude
>>152988022sounds hot
This shit is still going?
>>1529867622 hourshttps://youtu.be/bYi1ehsExAQ?si=UbB-NOFO5yj2yLvz
It’s starting
That was it?
>>152986762>The last episode over 10 mins was Surf and Turf Wars Part 2
This isn't even the modern Tord episode they teased two years ago showing what he did after The End. What a hack.
You owe him an apology, /co/.
>3 mins long, including a long merch ad>No voice again (again)What the fuck is going on?
>>152994497Eddsworld is a shell of a cartoon kept on life support to sell merch.
>>152994439I never understood the hate that Legacy got, it was better written than beyond imo. Although I disagree with his take on not wanting to emulate Edd's drawing style. That's the one thing Beyond is actually doing right
>>152993304>be me>get excited to watch>turns out its a entire 3 minutes filler animation to shill for more merch>the merch isnt even a new thing or atleast a teaser for something big, its just milking nostalgiaMatt doesnt know how to write shit and all the new episodes are boring slices of life without funny jokes, maybe we judged tomska too much
>>152994497I wouldn't mind the shorter animations if it meant they'd release more consistently but they can't even do that
>>152994634They still merch non stop because Matt is thousands in debt to animators for years old episodesI don't know how much longer they can do this. I also think they're planning a tord spin off series (although I cant prove it) probably a last ditch effort to make a profit
>>152994619His justification for it is perfectly fine considering the circumstance. One might feel differently now that several years have passed, but I can understand not wanting to emulate your dead friend's art style and voice before his body was even cold.
>>152986762This is still around
>>152987538Its really fucked up people do that. Edd wanted the series to go on. I think an episode every few years is a great idea and honors Edd's dying wish. Happy they are going back to the rougher style and not that round fujo bait shit they did at first when Edd died. It would habe been cool if they got Tord to say a line at the start but it being voiceless was a good idea imo.
>>152994737>a clean, high quality art style is fujobait shitJesus fucking Christ. That's just Paul Ter Voorde's art style. It turns out "just do it shitty" is hard for a self-respecting artist to do.
>>152994674>Matt is thousands in debt to animators for years old episodesshit. this is a tickling time bomb and that he misses meetings proves that its affecting him already>I don't know how much longer they can do this.2 or 3 years to say the most, the tords spinoff might be the last eddsworld crumbs we will be getting for a loong while, enjoy it while it lasts..
>>152986762I still kind of want to fuck the guy :/
>>152994634Tomska is actually capable of being funny, he just usually chooses not to for whatever reason
>>152995063His funny ran out when he got fat A reverse Jonah Hill situation
>>152994907I don't understand why they keep trying this, the fact that Eddsworld Legacy was able to deliver its promised content at all was nothing short of a miracle. The economics of YouTube and animation are incompatible, it simply cannot support a paid crew outside of the most successful productions. Eddsworld's got ad revenue, patrons, and YouTooz out the wazoo, and it's still not enough.
It was okay, I really don't like the direction they're taking by slowly confirming that Tord from Legacy is a clone, as the fans say.
It's a bit weird to me that they continue to use the characters based on real people who don't want any involvement in the show anymore (Tord and Tom)
Edd wouldn't ever let it get to this.These two clowns are a disgrace to his dead friend and should be reminded of that constantly
>>1529960281) Tom and Tord are voiced by different people now2) The main cast stopped being self-inserts of real people after Edd's death
>>152996079>Edd wouldn't ever let it get to this.Funny enough, Tomska commented that Edd would probably hate Legacy if he were still alive
>>152996028what gets me is that they don't even like each other either so it HAS to be awkward... but at the same time I feel like they're enough of charicatures and enough time has passed for the real people to just be kinda disconnected to the characters (I hope.)Lke I probably wouldn't care at all if my persona oc from when i was 12 who doesn't look anything like me nor really acts like me is used for some literal zombie show
>>152996028What else are they to do, Edd wanted the show to go on and Tom is a core member so getting rid of him would just be Matt and Edd. There's no real excuse for Tord though, he left over a decade ago and there was never any real reason to bring his character back unless they convinced IRL Tord to come back as a fun get-together one-off thingHindsight is 20/20 but Eddsworld should have ended after Edd past. No one knows how to run production for a show that was just a guy animating himself and his friends going on adventures
>>152996128Didn't Edd consider bringing Tord back in a spin-off called Super Average?
>>152996083>2) The main cast stopped being self-inserts of real people after Edd's deathThey're still based on real people. They look like them and have their names. It's still weird to me
>>152996144now he is back for the main show when it's Below Average kek
>>152996162tbqf who tf names their child Tord?
>>152996144Had to look that up because I never heard of Super Average but who else would "Red Leader" be other than Tord. Even when I was a kid I understood that Red Leader probably meant Tord. The real question is was Tord made aware of this at the time
>>152996162>they look like themthey look like generic cartoons. the most he has in common with his cartoon form is hair color. that being said tord said he didn't want to be in the cartoon anymore and this is disrespecting his wishes.
>>152996235>The real question is was Tord made aware of this at the timeHe didn't find out about Edd's death until it was announced, so I highly doubt he knew the Red Leader existed.
>>152996162If it makes you feel better irl Tord isn't a gun-nut with a crippling hentai addiction. The most accurate thing about Eddsworld Tord is that he didn't like Tom It seemed like Edd and Tom were fine with using Tord some time after irl Tord left, they probably didn't consider the two to be too similar enough for a revival of the character to be too much of a serious big deal
>>152986762Why Edd's friends keeps making Eddsworld episodes? Why they don't let it die already?
>>152997461Blame Edd's family
>>152997519Why?
>>152997525They asked Tom and Matt to continue with Eddsworld after Edd's death
>>152997585That can't be the only reason, do they pay Tom and Matt to do it?
>>152997618I don't know
>>152997618They get a cut of the profits undoubtedly, but the well is clearly drying up as nobody wants to buy merch of some old heads in hoodies. Eventually Edd’s family is going to let it go since it’s no longer profitable, but they’re the ones holding on to the tit of the cow in the hopes there’s still a drop of milk.
>>152997461>>152997618Sue Gould (Edd's mother) has executive producer credit in new episodes, she was the one who told Tom and Matt that Edd didn't want the show to die with him. No one knows how Tom or Matt are compensated. The other Gould children contribute voices with George now voicing Edd and Vicky voicing Ell. Vicky also does comics occasionally. You can interpret that all as charitably or as uncharitably as you'd like. I tend to lean towards the former, Sue still has Edd's artwork as her Twitter banner. Just an emotional quagmire all around.
